12 Monkeys Wiki:Quality guidelines

Here are some guidelines you should consider when writing an article on this wiki.

Scope
The scope of the wiki covers the 1995 film 12 Monkeys. Please only cover topics that are directly related to the film. Secondary topics such as TV spinoffs, merchandise, fan works, and so on should not be covered extensively or in detail.

Before you begin
Make sure you have enough to write about. Avoid stubs, which are articles with very little information. Articles should consist of multiple paragraphs and provide a fairly comprehensive overview of their topic.

Write from the point of view of the audience
You are writing about a work of fiction. Make sure you describe it as such, and avoid giving speculative descriptions from the point of view of "inside the universe" of the work. When writing about a character, do not write its fictional biography, instead make sure you describe events as they are seen in the work, without "filling in the gaps".

Be clear
Use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Make the article progress logically from topic to topic. Keep the formatting simple and uncluttered. Start at the beginning. Remember, you are not writing a journal, a work of fiction, or a personal essay, so structure your article so the little flourishes don't get in the way.
